Abstract (en)
[origin: US2002162782A1] A filter head and a spin-on fuel filter element where the filter head includes an inlet and an outlet. A threaded nipple extends downwardly from a base of the filter head and includes a central flow passage. A valve member located in the flow passage is normally biased closed. The valve member includes a threaded portion extending outwardly from the nipple. The filter element includes upper and lower end caps, and is located in a housing having a tap plate. The tap plate includes a threaded central opening for screwing the filter element onto the filter head. The upper end cap supports a threaded sleeve which is screwed onto the valve member. The sleeve/valve member combination has a different thread pitch than the tap plate/nipple combination, which moves the valve member to an open position when the filter element is installed on the filter head.
